What is Lineaism, you ask? Other than shorthand for "the work of Jonathan Blackwell"...
Lineasim began as a style of drawing based on the work of Egon Schiele and Auguste Rodin.
Later it became a style of painting with Linear strokes inspired by Vincent van Gogh.
The first feature length Lineaist Picture, Louvst, was produced in association with Duke University in 2004.
Now Lineaism is a linear timeline of all these events, and the lines that connect people.
Lineaism is connecting the dots from one project and one community to another.
Lineaism has become Lineaist Enterprises, LLC in a shift to become a responsible global citizen with a local presence in communities around the world. Lineaist Enterprises is the design firm that sustains the creative force of Lineaism.
There are two primary clients of Lineaist Enterprises: the ETA Cafe™ and the ETA Calendar™. The ETA Calendar™ promotes events that take place at the ETA Cafe™ or other venues who choose to brand with ETA Cafe™.
